Chapter 10: The Threshold of Life and Death

"Are you a fox demon?" Liu Mi almost couldn't believe it, "Looking at your methods, you can turn the wheat stack into a courtyard Langfang, which is no different from a Taoist priest." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"It's okay to say I'm a Taoist. I studied under Laoshan Qingmei Zhenren, and I also traveled all over the five mountains and three mountains to seek advice from the immortals. The old man stroked his beard, and he responded loudly.

"Oh, you can get a magic power, show me?"

"I also need the permission of the owner. ”

"Accurate!"

The old man sniffled, clapped his hands and praised: "Today, someone sells pears in the county seat, this pear is very good, I invite you to eat pears." ”

Liu Mi was interested, "Of course, you have to see and understand." ”

"Let me go back and change my clothes. The old man arched his hand and went back to the hole in the wheat stack.

There is a hunter surnamed Li who is a neighbor with Liu Mi, and his dog has been barking at Liu Mi's house recently, but he doesn't dare to approach.

Orion has experience and suspects that there is something strange in Liu Mi's family.

After inquiring with someone, I knew that in the wheat stack of Liu Mi's house, there lived an elusive old man.

Orion ran to the wheat stack and sniffed it, but did not smell the stench, but was still suspicious.

Seeing Liu Mi standing on the street today, Li Orion came over, "Liu Sheng, is there a novel story recently?"

Liu Mi and Li Orion greeted each other side by side, sighed and said, "There is no new story, my cultivation has reached a bottleneck, and after the congenital consummation, I have never been able to go further...... The beauty who said that she was good came to me at night, but she didn't see me for a long time. ”

Li Orion's heart tightened, and he said, "Doesn't this guy have a crush on my daughter?" Li Orion snorted and quickly slipped away.

Halfway through, Li Orion turned back again: "Liu Sheng, the old man who lives in your wheat stack ......"

"I know, he calls himself a fox. ”

β€œ...... Liu Sheng, you know, why ......"

He said that he was a fox, that is, a fox? Liu Mi felt in his heart, mortals, always like to be gullible and blindly obedient.

"Even if he's a fox, what?" asked Liu Mi rhetorically.

Li Orion thought about it carefully, Liu Mi is not a man, he has no special habits, he is strong and strong, and he really has no reason to be afraid.

Li Orion walked away stupidly, he walked on the front foot, and the old man came on the back foot.

The old man was wearing a tattered robe, a torn turban, and a happy smile on his face.

"Laughing so treacherously, it's really not a good bird. Liu Mi didn't break it, just looked at the old man quietly, and saw what medicine was sold in the old man's gourd.

"The owner, follow me to the market in the county town, and when I get there, the owner doesn't need to do anything. The old man has his own magic method......" along the way, the old man carefully advised.

Liu Mi's heart tightened, here!

There are many people doing business in the county, many people studying, and many wealthy households.

These people have money in their hands, and they are not afraid of being expensive, but they are afraid of being bad.

The countrymen do what they like, collect the best things in the mountains and wilderness, and sell them in the county seat, and they can always make a profit.

There was a country man who spilled his skin, and I don't know if it was his family's ancestral pear tree, or if he stole someone else's.

He pushed a donkey cart, and a cart of yellow fragrant pears was placed on it.

This pear is not big, the flesh is thick, and the aroma is overflowing.

Pears are good pears, and the price is also a good price, even if it is the smallest pear, you have to give three or five copper coins to splash the skin.

"Look at the owner, this sloppy is a scoundrel, stealing chickens and dogs on weekdays, and doing all the things that lack morality. Today, with the righteousness and flesh spirit of the owner, I want to teach him a lesson. After the old man finished speaking, he straightened the broken turban on his head and stepped forward.

The old man stepped forward, stopped the car, and stretched out his hand, "Give me a pear to eat." ”

"You're blind, why don't you get hit by a car and die?" The countryside is so idle, it's good not to eat idle food, how can you be willing to give others idle food.

waved his hand and scolded loudly, telling the old man to hurry up, "I'm still waiting for the rice to go to the pot at home." ”

The old man was not annoyed, and stretched out his hand with a smile, "Give me a pear to eat." ”

"Go aside!" the country man scolded loudly, waving the old man like a dog.

Old Weng Deng's face changed, and he said sternly: "You have hundreds of pears in this car, and the poor road only asks for you." Poor Dao eats your pear, and naturally dispels the disaster for you. ”

The countrymen are the most taboo about lip color, and they were angry: "The old thing that has suffered from the plague has cursed me, and you are begging for a beating!"

"Even if Poor Dao eats white food, it doesn't hurt you much, why do you want to lose so much temper?"

This countryman and the old man are slightly lacking in morality, and Liu Mi couldn't help but shake his head: "The social atmosphere is worse than in previous years." ”

"Sell pears, you have to sell this cart of pears for a long time, take a bad pear to this old man, send him aside, you should sell pears quickly." Liu Mi is proficient in the Book of Changes, and according to the Book of Changes, he calculates and persuades.

"I Ching", the last of the six arts of a gentleman, is also the most important and the most difficult to master.

If you want to learn the Book of Changes, you must first learn ninety-nine arithmetic, from one by one by one to nine by nine, after mastering it, you must also practice labor, summarize the laws, and finally master logic, and spy on the trajectory of the operation of heaven and earth.

"There are no doors! I don't lie to him! He still wants to slander me!" the countryman waved his hand in disgust, "Give him a pear, and I will sell one less." ”

"This is a fragrant pear, it can't be sold out today, and tomorrow the fragrance is weak, so it won't be sold at a high price. It's better to give him a broken pear and send him away, and you might as well sell the pear quickly. ”

Some of the people next to him knew Liu Mi, and they also persuaded: "Yes, Liu Shengzhi is both wise and brave, and he is the best at trading, he used to sell linen and grain, and he earned more than 100 acres of land in two years." "Now that Liu Sheng is teaching you to do business, you have to be taught with an open mind.

The country people are stubborn, and a loaf of bread must be cut into eight pieces, and if it is cut into twelve pieces, it will not be eaten.

"If you are kind, you can pay for the pear to ask him! Why let me give him a pear!" He was still reluctant to lose a pear.

There was a guy in the silk shop of Xiangyunji on the side of the road, who was assigned by the shopkeeper to see what was going on outside.

When the guy came out to see, he actually quarreled over a pear.

"Don't make any noise, delay our family's business. The man took out five cents, "Buy a pear and ask this Taoist to use it." ”

"Okay, it's okay, let's all disperse. Summer is coming, if you need silk, come to Xiangyun Ji to have a look!" The guy waved his hand and motioned for everyone to go about their own business, "Pay attention to shopping and shopping, don't patronize and watch the excitement, your money bag has been shunned!"

Everyone came back to their senses and quickly covered their waists, and the money bag was still there, and they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

There were also a few thieves who stole money bags, and they immediately blushed, and they were angry and scolded that the people who stole the money were raised by Sister Yao.

"Thank you, little brother of Xiangyunji," the old man arched his hand, and then said to the people watching the excitement: "The monks are not stingy, I have good pears, please taste them." ”

"Dao Chief, let's go, if you have pears, why don't you eat your own pears. The guy at the silk shop had to go back to greet the guests, and he didn't ask very patiently.

The old man said: "The wise man takes advantage of the trend, I need this pear pit as a seed." ”

When I finished eating, the old man took a big bite of the pear.

After eating the pear, the old man took the pear core in his hand, took out a small shovel from the pocket on his shoulder, and dug a small hole in the ground.

Putting the pear pits in, the old man said, "Go and get a pot of hot water, the hot water will grow fast." ”

The people who watched the excitement were not a big deal, and immediately ran to the Chen Ji roast restaurant next to them to ask for a pot of boiling hot water.

The pot of water was poured into a palm-sized pit of earth, but it did not overflow.

"It's all poured in, it's all poured in!" The people who watched the excitement suddenly came to their senses, and they all pulled their necks and squeezed forward with their feet on their feet.

Before I could squeeze to the front, I saw a young bud emerge, and in the blink of an eye, it was half a human high.

After a while, it grows into a pear tree two or three meters high, and the branches and leaves of the pear tree are luxuriant, flowering, and fruiting, and the fruit turns from green to yellow, and the large and fragrant pears hang all over the branches.

"Amazing! Amazing!" I didn't expect to see such a miraculous method!

Not only did the people who watched the excitement widen their eyes, but even the small traders around them lost their stalls and ran over to see the excitement.

"Eat pears, eat pears, come and eat pears!" the old man plucked pears from the tree and distributed them to the onlookers.

Liu Mi stood outside the pile, and the old man threw over a pear, squeezed his eyes, and told him not to speak.

Watching the lively people get the pears, they will eat it all in a while.

"Please eat the pears, and the pear trees will be poor. "The old man cut down the tree with a shovel, and it took a long time to cut it down.

The pear tree seemed to weigh hundreds of pounds, and the old man lifted the weight lightly, carried the pear tree full of branches and leaves on his shoulder, and walked away in a hurry.

Everyone got out of the way, saw the old man leave, and praised one after another: Taihang Shandong, there are many talented people and wonders!

After the Taoist priest left, the crowd dispersed, and the countryman was annoyed that he was stingy: "If I give up a pear, maybe I can learn this craft from the teacher." ”

When the time comes...... there is no capital to buy and sell, "Where are my pears!" The countryman looked at his car, and there was no pear!

Only then did he suddenly realize, "That demon who killed a thousand knives, he stole my pears for you to eat!

None of the people in the street paid any attention to him, but ridiculed him for his evil retribution.

The countryman only patted his head in shame and stretched out his hand to pull the cart, only to find that the handlebar was also missing!

The countryman was very angry and hurried to chase after the Taoist priest.

Turning a corner, I saw the broken handlebar thrown under the corner, and then I realized that the pear tree that the Taoist priest had just cut was his handlebar, but the Taoist priest had disappeared.

The people in the bazaar were laughing from ear to ear.

"Tricks?" Liu Mi held a fragrant pear in his hand, thinking in his heart.

"You give me back the pears!" The countryman couldn't find the right owner, so he vented his anger indiscriminately.

"Take it for five cents. Liu Mi took out five cents and threw it to him.

"No, you ......"

"Huh?" Liu Mi's eyes became stern.
